Sorry, i have never seen bevore that message. Can you send me the full log file with email to d dot huesken at inpsyde dot com
Hi Daniel,
I just received a very similar report to this.
I think the issue is that Dropbox have dropped some of their supported SSL message digest algorithms. Some people now have PHP versions installed that don’t support any algorithms that Dropbox support. Hence this error.
I’d guess Dropbox were responding to Heartbleed.
Similar report on another project: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23002438/ssl-error-occurs-on-one-computer-but-not-the-other
Best wishes,
David
That then means that backwpup backup to Dropbox does not work anymore worldwide!!
That’s something!
I posted this issue at Dropbox support.
Hi libaudie,
I wasn’t saying that… your web hosting company just needs to update some components on their webserver. Their PHP install is (if I’ve understood the bug rightly) linked against a very old version of the OpenSSL library. For people with more recent OpenSSL libraries, there will be no problem. I had one report of this problem for a different plugin, and came here to see how common the problem is. These are the only 2 reports relating to Dropbox I’ve spotted so far.
David
Having said that, though, it would be good to hear from Dropbox officially about the changes they’ve made. I couldn’t spot any announcements they’ve made. I’m guessing they’ve probably assessed that only a tiny number of webservers will have the obsolete openssl library that can’t connect. It’d be interesting to hear it from the horse’s mouth, though.
David
any news for this anoying problem??
Hi libaudie,
I mentioned what you need to do 3 posts back: “your web hosting company just needs to…”
David
Yes I know, I asked my internet provider to upgrade OpenSSL library.
They replied that it is not possible as they need to upgrade the whole server first. Upgrade CentOS, PHP, MySQL and Plesk etc. In other words do a migration of all my websites running on this server. Easier said then done.
What I don’t understand is, it worked without any problem before. . . .
Hi, I encountered the exact same problem about two weeks ago, the backup use to dump to Dropbox smoothly, but now it can not, this is quite annoying.
@libaudie and Daniel:
Do you know how to use it? I tired to put it into the backWPUp plugin folder, does not work. Please guide.
You must download and activate this little wordpress plugin at http://marketpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/backwpup-disable-ssl-verify.zip as you do with any other plugin. Download and activate.
Worked for me.
It does solved the problem, thanks a bunch, really appreciated.
yapp now working after instal backwpup-disable-ssl-verify.zip , thanks
on my another site no error message appear. just stuck in 19% and failed to upload, it was working fine before, this is the working log
